Experience

I support clients with a wide range of personal, emotional, and relational difficulties, offering a warm, compassionate space where you can move at your own pace and feel genuinely heard. I work alongside you with sensitivity, curiosity, and respect, honouring your experiences and what matters most to you. Alongside talking therapy, I also offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) and have experience supporting people living with PTSD and Complex PTSD, helping them process traumatic experiences safely and with care.

Part of my practice includes offering therapy in British Sign Language (BSL) and providing accessible, thoughtful support to Deaf and hard-of-hearing clients, so that communication feels natural, respectful, and inclusive.
